After setting the stage on fire in Dubai, international singing sensation Justin Bieber, slated to perform in Mumbai on May 10, arrived in the city in the wee hours of Tuesday.

Bieber was received at the airport by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's bodyguard Shera, who is in charge of the former's security in Mumbai along with additional Z-level security provided by the Mumbai Police.

The Jio Justin Bieber Purpose World Tour is coming to Mumbai at the DY Patil Stadium where the 'Baby' star will perform on some of his hit tracks on May 10. 'Harry Potter' actress Elarica Johnson will host the event in Mumbai.

Around 45,000 Beliebers are expected to be in attendance for the Grammy-winning singer's first-ever show in India.

Before setting off for the Indian subcontinent, Bieber took to Twitter to inform his fans about his arrival.

"Dubai is incredible... India you are next. @Amit_Bhatia99 u ready? #PurposeTourStadiums," he tweeted.

It's also reported that fans of the 'Love Yourself ' star had been waiting at the airport even as a private jet from Dubai landed at the International Airport at 2:30 a.m.

The 'Cold Water' singer embarked on the world tour on March 9, 2016 in Seattle. He will close it on September 24 this year in Tokyo.

During his trip to India, Bieber is expected to visit New Delhi, Jaipur and Agra.
